WHAT DOES MACLAURIN'S SERIES MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Taylor series

In mathematics, a Taylor series is a representation of a function as an infinite sum of terms that are calculated from the values of the function's derivatives at a single point. The concept of a Taylor series was discovered by the Scottish mathematician James Gregory and formally introduced by the English mathematician Brook Taylor in 1715. If the Taylor series is centered at zero, then that series is also called a Maclaurin series, named after the Scottish mathematician Colin Maclaurin, who made extensive use of this special case of Taylor series in the 18th century. It is common practice to approximate a function by using a finite number of terms of its Taylor series. Taylor's theorem gives quantitative estimates on the error in this approximation. Any finite number of initial terms of the Taylor series of a function is called a Taylor polynomial. The Taylor series of a function is the limit of that function's Taylor polynomials, provided that the limit exists. A function may not be equal to its Taylor series, even if its Taylor series converges at every point.

Definition of Maclaurin's series in the English dictionary

The definition of Maclaurin's series in the dictionary is (mathematics) an infinite sum giving the value of a function f(x) in terms of the derivatives of the function evaluated at zero: f( x) = f(0) + (f′(0) x)/1! + (f″(0) x²)/2! + … Also called: Maclaurin series.
